About Roon

Millions of people turn to online sources such as search engines and social media for medical information. But these platforms are often overwhelming and rife with misinformation. Roon was built by an interdisciplinary team of doctors, patients, caregivers, public health experts, designers, engineers, and content producers, all dedicated to our mission of reimagining the internet for health with trust and expert curation at its core.

Currently, Roon is used and loved by thousands of people navigating ALS, GBM, and Dementia. Hundreds of doctors from leading medical institutions including Harvard, Stanford, UCSF, Cornell, UPenn, Duke, Columbia etc. have created Roon content and distribute Roon to their patients. We’re now applying those insights as well as new technical innovation to fertility care and women’s health.
